Hi,

I recently purchased a new hard drive and installed Windows XP SP3. I
created 2 user accounts both with administrator access. However, when
I
try to install any programs, it gives me the following error:

"An error occured while attempting to create the directory
C:\Documents
and Settings\.....\Application Data\xxxxx" (.... being the User
folder
name and xxxxx being the applications folder)

Please help!

Thanks!
